The Ocean Race.
New York, March 1.-THE ocean
race between the keel schooners Cor
onet and Dauntless, for a wager of $10,-
600 a side, from Sandy Hook to
Queenstown, will be started, weather
permitting, at l o'clock.
The narrows were filled with nu-
merous yachts and other sea craft to
witness the departure OF the racing
Yankee schooners. The last signal
was given from Fort Hamilton at 10
minutes after l o'clock, and within a
few minutes both of the ocean racers
had crossed the imaginary line, and
started on their way to Cork Harbor,
the Coronet leading. The wind was
"a miles an hour and increasing.
SANDY Hook, March 12.-The
Judges boat left the yachts when
north of the light ship at 2:30, the
yachts forging ahead with a "a
nile north northwest breeze. The
weather remains clear and the sea has
gone down some. The Coronet was
still leading by about on~e-fourth of a
mile. A representative of the Asso-
ciated Press is aboard of each yacht.
Neebe Not Permitted TO Attend h
Funeral Of His Wife.
CAIcAGo, March 12.-Sherif Wat
son said to-day it had been decided to
not permit Oscar Neebe to attend the
funeral OF his wife tomorrow. 1t has
| been decided by the authorities that
the presence of Neebe would only tend
to incite disorder on the part of the
| Anarchists. Advices of the police de-
partment are to the effect that fully
l $1,000 people, who sympathize with
the Red Flag, will parade tomorrow,
and that these people, once melted,
might commit some overt act which
might result in an outbreak, and I'M
| der the circumstances they have de-
| cided not to complicate matters by
having one OF the condemned Anar-
chists in their midst.
Confessed His Guilt.
RALEIGH, N. c., March '12.-Henry
Arts, colored, was hanged at Goldsboro
yesterday for the murder OF his step
daughter in November last. During
his trial and imprisonment he dis
claimed any knowledge of the crime,
but on the scaffold confessed his guilt.
The GOODNESS and nerve of the criminal
was remarkable. He said he was GO
ing from the gallows to his God, and
he would rather be on the scaffold
with faith and belief in his eternal
happiness than to live in ten thousand
worlds like this.

Queens Bench to-day decided that any
married Canadian citizen, according to
